Better than ever on turf this year, notably over C&D when winning Listed (beating Likedbymike) in June and good third under top-weight in handicap following month; ground on the quick side when unable to mount a challenge in Shergar Cup Dash at Ascot earlier this month but back to favoured C&D and on easier ground seems sure to make a bold bid.

Ended 2025 with a win in a handicap in Bahrain (5f, good); he has raised his game on turf this summer, winning a Listed race at Cork (5f, good; cheekpieces first time) in June; the cheekpieces were absent when he was a fine third in a Cork handicap two weeks ago, doing best of the far-side group, and another big run seems likely.

Three Curragh wins include two premier handicaps at 5f and has added two wins this season at Naas; holding his form well, including Scurry fourth to Sondad and staying on fourth to Bear On The Run under top-weight over today's C&D; booking of talented 7lb claimer could prove a shrewd move.
